I cordially invite you on a trip I’ve made myself Quite intimidating really If you sit upon a shelf Exhilarating moments Of Fear or…something else Something I’m not sure you Realize… Is very hard to squelch Should you go or stay behind? Satisfaction guaranteed… If you are dissatisfied You soul, it shall be freed A simple trip around the block Really it shan’t take long Or do I contradict myself? You’ve been on it all along. Step carefully now as you depart Gather all your things Remember the shelf is dusty Do you feel that tingling? It is the rush of living life And taking all the risks Play charades if you like I’m off to book my trip. Oakling January 9, 2004
